Topol (DayZ)

I think the goal of making snipers more rare isn't to make DayZ a CQB based game, it's to make CQB possible in Dayz. Currently, any high pop server is going to have so many people with anti-materiel rifles that if you stand still anywhere that isn't in the middle of nowhere you die instantly. This is the primary reason for why I don't play DayZ anymore, it's boring unless you enjoy sitting on the hill over electro for 12 hours at a time. Kind of difficult to do any of that when the first shot kills you every single time. I don't think there's much of a market for a game where the gameplay is to just sit in the woods all the time, doing nothing.

I would rather have sniper rifles just be far more difficult to obtain than they are now. The problem with sniper rifles is that they've taken over PvP, making both pvp and pve bland and uninteresting. Scoped guns will always be considered better than AR's etc. because they allow you to kill anyone without any effort and without the risk of them fighting back. So in order to have any form of PVP that isn't airfield camping, sniper rifles need to be a luxury item for bandits.

I can deny that. Your MBPs and MBAs are made in the same factories, with the same machines, by the same workers as Asus, Dell, and HP laptops. Pegatron and Foxconn sell the same components to Apple, HP, Acer, Asus, and Dell. Fanboyism is hilarious sometimes.

They hold back graphical development, give games piss-poor control schemes, and make dumbed-down hand-holding gameplay the industry standard. Just to name a few problems with consoles. That being said, I don't have a problem with a DayZ console port, as long as they finish development of the PC version before they even begin to think about consoles. Also, keep the servers segregated, I don't enjoy being called racial slurs by porcine 10 year olds.

In a real life situation a cash strapped former warsaw-pact country wouldn't have hundreds of m107's laying around. Also random civilians probably couldn't figure out how to use/maintain them.

Wouldn't be an issue without duping. Need to start banning dupers.

More low-tier stuff, having tons of players bombing around in hueys with NVGs and anti-materiel rifles kind of breaks the apocalypse survivor vibe. I want the kind of guns someone could actually find in their area. Bolt action rifles: mosin-nagant, ruger m77's, winchester model 70. Cop guns: Ruger mini-14, mossberg 500, fort-12. Self-defense guns: compact pistols, snub-nosed revolvers, sawed-off shotguns. Mostly I want an overhaul of the existing loot tables and weapon stats. Kind of sucks that in order to have decent gear you have to look like someone from a call of duty poster.

End game for me is killing people and taking their beans. Which is great because I can reach endgame with nothing but a hatchet.

I also hate that guy, but I also shoot unarmed fresh spawns. The way I see it, an unarmed player is just a bandit who isn't prepared for a fight. I don't wait for an armed player to notice me before shooting them, so why wait for an unarmed player to find a gun before shooting them?

Why not also make it take 2 hours to cut down a tree and harvest wood? If all you're after is the most realistic shooting people experience I think I have found a hobby that's better suited to your interests: http://www.goarmy.co...s-and-jobs.html Personally, I play DayZ because it's fun, specifically because I enjoy PvP in DayZ. However there is nothing fun about sniping in it's current state, it isn't fun to get sniped, it isn't fun killing snipers, and it sure as hell isn't fun to snipe stationary noobs in electro.

Everyone's getting kicked. BI updated and accidentally the whole game.

Also got kicked, script restriction #93. I don't know how Arma players have put up with BI for so long.
